Chose Emburse Tallie
In my opinion, Expensify is much easier to use.
Chose Emburse Tallie
Tallie is a lower cost system than Concur. It doesn't come with all the bells and whistles that you'll find in Concur; Concur is intended to be a payment platform where all bills/expenses can be run.

That said, implementation and per-transaction costs in Concur are an absolute …
Chose Emburse Tallie
Both Tallie and Expensify are quality products that help with credit card management. Setting up an account, if you are only managing one company either product is equally qualified, however, if you are managing multiple companies, I find Tallie is easier for the set up and …
Chose Emburse Tallie
I found Concur complex and extremely time-consuming with lots of irrelevant questions and an illogical layout.
Chose Emburse Tallie
Tallie stacks up well to Concur. In terms of ease of use, Tallie wins by a landslide. However, when it comes to deeper functionality and integrations into other systems within the business, Concur definitely wins there. So, Tallie is easier for more simple purposes, while …
Chose Emburse Tallie
I like the ease of use of Tallie compared to the big companies out there.
Chose Emburse Tallie
I was not responsible for the decision to move forward with Tallie. That said, we already leveraged Bill.com, making it a logical choice when combined with the billing/subscription options.

As easy to use as Tallie is, I feel that Concur and Expensify have more pleasant app …
Chose Emburse Tallie
The ability to electronically upload Tallie information into Acumatica saves time and increases accuracy. They have great customer service, which helped with the implementation process. It's also low cost comparing to other available products, which is very important for …
Chose Emburse Tallie
As stated, we did not use a system and instead used Google Drive to upload our receipts and then Excel to track our spending to then submit. This would take hours of not only the employee submitting but the manager approving and then our financial team ensuring that each coding …
Chose Emburse Tallie
Tallie was chosen based on what our parent company was using, so we did not do our own evaluation. We have not experienced any major malfunctions with Tallie, and employees seem to find it easy to use. Until we run into any major snags, we'll continue to use Tallie for managing …
Chose Emburse Tallie
While Concur is a great product in itself, Tallie is vastly superior in user friendliness. The OCR technology is a game changer, and the ease of mobile use can transform your workforce. Concur is better suited for Fortune 200 companies or companies with tens of thousands of …

Emburse
Tallie is great for companies or outsourced accounting teams who are heavily involved with helping users upload receipts or code changes to the correct G/L Account groups or dimensions. Tallie allows for you to set up specific Expense options that are easier for users to chose what charges are for that are mapped to G/L Account groups in the background which allows for more accurate accounting. However, if your accounting books are using other dimensions like departments or projects the more complex the set up the more help a user might need, so it's nice how easy it is to drop into an account to help finish the more complex coding for users prior to them being submitted for approval.

Pros
Emburse
  • Seamless integration with Bill.com. While this will not specifically benefit every user, our organization was able to quickly marry the two tools and provide timely reimbursements to employees.
  • Customer support -- they're available via so many mediums: user training, email, phone, support case reference numbers. If you need assistance, whether an end-user or administrator, you can get it.
  • In-app camera with intelligent image analysis to extrapolate the vendor name, date of the transaction, amount. It also offers the ability to import a photo from your mobile gallery, and then perform the analysis.

Cons
Emburse
  • Search functions need much improvement; i.e. vendor search for transactions.
  • Impossible to import transactions for dates prior to card being added to system. There's no going back.
  • Needs better recognition of expense categories. Sees airlines and Chick-Fil-A as Dues and Subscriptions (?)

Tallie is a functional and reliable method of reporting expenses, though it's integrations and old-looking mobile application UI are drawbacks

Support Rating
Emburse
As a user of Tallie, I have never needed any support to use it. It is simple, logical and needs no training to use. As a company, I don't think we need any ongoing support but I believe the setup process, which they guided us through a year ago went well.

Return on Investment
Emburse
  • Tallie allows my finance team to spend so much less time on expense reports. After a large event, we would have 20 employees submitting reimbursements taking many hours of their time. This has cut out that time.
  • Tallie allows me to spend a total of fifteen minutes updating records in a report for reimbursement compared to the two hours I used to spend on our archaic system.
  • Tallie allows direct deposit into your account 2-3 days after your report is approved compared to the weeks it used to take to receive reimbursement.
